Essendon changes:

In - Zac Clarke, Kobe Mutch

Out - Mitch Brown, Kyle Langford.

Good news is no Hooker.

Bad news is Clarke is coming in to partner Bellchambers to run Gawn off his feet, per Port game. What's our answer to this?

Clark and bellchambers are both hopeless with the ball, let them play 2 like that if they want, it's to there own detriment

With Zac Clarke in we should have brought in Keilty/Preuss to allow Tom and Sam to stay forward.

Very strange move to me.

Billy apparently played a great game last week and can't get a run but ANB stays in.

I really don't get it.

Bit disappointed Keilty wasn’t picked this week, thought he was a real chance for his debut

Where the F is Preuss???????????????

FFS what’s the point in getting him if we ain’t gunna select him.

Agree Drunk'n. With Clarke in it really doesn't make sense to me.

Got me stuffed too.

 J. Wagner in frees up Hibberd/Hunt/Kolo to play more wing-time I suppose.

Not really, just a swap for May as the 3rd tall so no difference really.

Quite happy with the in's this week.

The key things I think Josh Wagner certainly offers is hardness and good defensive intent.  He is also quite quick and willing to take that game on creatively by foot.

I thought Cory Wagner was pretty stiff to be dropped from our Rd.1 performance to be honest.  Won enough of the ball as a defender and I thought his use of it was pretty good too.

Lycett and Ryder > daylight > Bellend and Clarke


Nothing against the 2 wagners but Kielty should have got a run. If we loose and petracca, Weed and anb play poorly this week they should be dropped. Find form at casey.

I definitely wouldn't be listing J Wagner and quick in the same sentence. I guess we all see it very differently.

He’s not even an emergency either

Most sides are now playing two ruckman except for us. What gives? 


Disappointed Garlett is playing VFL when we are crying out for a small forward.  Players with lots of pre-seasons behind them come straight back in.  Numerous examples of this around the league.  Doesn't compute.

Team selection does my f.........n head in. 

Whats the definition of insanity again????

We had Omac + Frost and Fritsch/Gawn as intercept last year. Why are we going Omac + Frost and May as intercept? 

Lever will come in and May will be lock down. 1 of Frost/Omac is superfluous to our needs long term, but we should still be going with Fritsch or Gawn dropping back. Having J Wagner as 3rd tall isn't really enough.

Edited by John Demonic

 

Both Wagners have pace and intensity, something we have lacked.

I like Sparrow but he has had a taste now and needs to come back when he is ready to play his natural position as a rotating midfielder.

ANB has to perform this week but will be more suited to a forward line with hunt’s electric pace and dry conditions.

Pruese is interesting because if we keep bombing it forward we may as well have a big target there, be it he or Max. However, the ball is being taken out of our forward line with such ease I couldn’t justify playing another tall that isn’t quick.

There seems to also be a lot of talk about May and Petracca being unfit for AFL level. I’m guessing Pruese would love to have the tank of either of those two. Albeit he is probably glad he is not as fat as Petracca.

Agree with you but just from last weeks game, May started on Ablett with Frost and Oscar on the talls. Wagner will be coming in to play a similar role.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
